Is it my imagination or are these things hard to find?

Got this on ebay last week for about $80. I've been looking for one for some time and never seemed to have any luck. Did they not make very many of them?

1/18 NK*K Spitfire isn't rare, but it is hard to find.. These pop up in the Buy-sell forum of the SSHQ forum now and then..

Well now I just hope I didn't pay too much just because I got impatient

Re: Is it my imagination or are these things hard to find?

This probably won't make you feel any better, but I found one on clearance at a small town New Mexico Walmart a little over a year ago-- price was $14,99 plus tax. I think it is a great Spitfire-- the best of the Spitfires done by 21st Century.

Re: Is it my imagination or are these things hard to find?

I just picked one up a few weeks back...It's my favorite looking Spitfire.
A year ago these were cheap now i have seen them on the bay anywhere from 69.00 to 100.00.

Serves me right for NOT picking one up when it was being marked down!

Tyler - if it's ANY consolation....

I ALSO paid $80 (£40) for my "Borough Of Lambeth" off of E-bay (UK) a few summers ago.

I DID get involved in a bidding-war (over-enthusiasm) & paid 'more than I wanted' - but, then again, they ARE much harder to come-by over here in the U.K.
